Top Comments of this video!! :3
I use to have a different perspective towards the lyrics and the song but now that I saw the story behind it, it feels completely different, more.... emotional yet heart-warming at the same time. I absolutely loved the video and I'm glad that Alec has made a song based on his past experiences. I also hope that he has recovered from the painful memories. We love you Alec <3

Lyrics:
The way you felt in my arms
Our chemistry was sacred
Oh, I fell for your charm
I was so infatuated
But you left me in the dark
And my heart completely vacant
Now I don't know oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Is your heart just preconditioned for brevity?
I don't mean to accuse you of refusing longevity
But I cannot excuse you for abusing my empathy
My empathy
I can take rejection
But you gave the impression
That this was the inception
Of something real
The way you felt in my arms
Our chemistry was sacred
Oh, I fell for your charm
I was so infatuated
But you left me in the dark
And my heart completely vacant
Now I don't know oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
How you could look me in the eye
And tell me that you love me
When you knew it was a lie
I was headed for Kentucky
When you called to say goodbye
How did I not see it coming?
Now I don't know oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Maybe I'm the one to blame, I've a tendency
For always ignoring my brain when it says to me
That someone's been manipulating my empathy
My empathy, hmm
I can take rejection
But you gave the impression
That this was the inception
Of something real
The way you felt in my arms
Our chemistry was sacred
Oh, I fell for your charm
I was so infatuated
But you left me in the dark
And my heart completely vacant
Now I don't know oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
How you could look me in the eye
And tell me that you love me
When you knew it was a lie
I was headed for Kentucky
When you called to say goodbye
How did I not see it coming?
Now I don't know oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know
The way you felt in my arms
Our chemistry was sacred
Oh, I fell for your charm
I was so infatuated
But you left me in the dark
And my heart completely vacant
Now I don't know oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Whenever I feel kind of chaotic and heart-broken, I listen to Alec's songs. His voice is like a Heal-all flower. It has this magical power of healing your aching soul. I close my eyes and listen to his songs on repeat. It's one of the most soothing things ever. If anyone out there is feeling emotionally wounded, please please listen to Alec's music. You won't regret!

"Love is kind of like the beach, fleeting ocean swims followed by driving home in wet clothes".
Damn it, that was so good and deep at the same time. I almost regret that he is a musician and not a writer. As a writer (well, not published actually but yes, I write novels), I found this line so powerful. But also as a writer, I love listening to his songs to inspire me.
You're the best Alec :D
(btw, I know it would be comical to describe myself as a writer with, probably, some mistakes on a little comment but I'm not english, and I'm not that good in English, I don't write often in english...) (I don't think it'd be interesting someone, but if you want to know, I'm french)
